Norfolk, VA,-Thursday, June 16th marks another National Dump the Pump day, which means leave the cars at home and try out some public transportation!

On National Dump the Pump day, people are encouraged to save money by getting around by public transportation.

Turning to public transportation doesn’t just help people save money, it also helps communities grow and prosper.

According to the American Public Transportation Association, for every $1 invested in public transportation, $4 is returned in economic returns -proof that it can help a community grow!

In Hampton Roads there are two pretty popular options: HRT and Light rail.
